Also check that you are using latest firmware which is 062AC7M.

I end up getting the DHCP PARSE error, I alternated DHCP Servers (from an Edgewater Networks EM4500 to MS Small Business Server 2003) but it did not help!

I then tried to get in to the configuration page of the 1230 but its asking me for a PASSWORD.

if anyone can help me with either the PASSWORD or any other information, I would be greatful.

PS, when I booted the phone for the first time, the phone DID obtain DHCP and connected to the server and then downloaded a new FIRMWARE, only after the firmware download the DHCP PARSE ERROR surfaced.

Yes, that’s a very hand troubleshooting feature.

I’m shocked that you have users that are so sophisticated that they know how to enter a trunk/access code to seize a specific trunk. I don’t know of any way to restrict that display information other than turning the display off.

Interesting problem though…

thanks for the reply.

on a side issue while having a call and if you put it on hold and you pick it back up the access code and the route member appears on the Nortel phone screen is there any way to hide it as we have users who easily use it to bypass the routing rules we configured.

Thanks in advance.

Well it seems you have quite a complex setup and configuration. You might want to investigate ADAC/LLDP-MED as a means of automating the voice VLAN assignment to the IP phones, and then look at the Nortel-i2004-B DHCP option along with the info-block TFTP (system.prv) node and TN assignment.

Good Luck!

Let me explain first the structure of my IP telephony as it is complicated a little bit, we have our offices in Cairo are scattered over 4 buildings in Total in City stars area (building2, building3, building5, building6) and we have 2 PBXs so as a result we have a mix of configurations:

building 2 PBX:

It serves all the phones physically located in building 2 which uses VLAN 20 and 2 Floors located in building5 which uses VLAN 35 and 45 depending on which floor the phone is physically located.

building 3 PBX:

It serves all the phones physically located in building 3 which uses VLAN 25 and 2 Floors located in building5 which uses VLAN 35 and 45 depending on which floor the phone is physically located and this signaling server serves building6 site as well that uses VLAN ID 52.

We may have some problems because some times we have the phones connecting to different signaling servers while they are on the same floor. Also I have some phones (around 100) that needs to be configured with and S1 and S2 as they are connecting to the other signaling server in case of disaster recovery.

also we have many types of phones like 2002, 2004, 2007, 2033, 1140

Thanks,

Your post really isn’t on topic… there is a fair amount of configuration involved if you are looking to deploy IP telephony over WLAN. You can configure the IP address of the phone manually through the keypad or through the configuration cradle.
